Strictly for "L" guys - "R" guys - Do NOT read!

Hello my righteous fellow L riders. May I take a moment of your time to explain why our comrades on that "other" red bike incessantly give us grief? Well, it's obvious to even the casual observer. It all boils down to insecurity. We all know the L is a manly man's bike. It's obvious, it's indisputable. Guys like us don't need to make a statement, we ARE statements. I guarantee that to a man, our R brethren were the types that got pushed around in school whereas we were the types to do the pushing around. This whole thing (and again, I guarantee this!) is related to short man syndrome!!! Don't question me on this, I know people!!
I beseech you therefore, my bosom buddies, pity these poor souls and be nice!

It boils down to" insanity "perhaps, "not insecurity" to want to run a dirt bike in the 100 mph + range, versus down to the local Starbucks for a cup of coffee. And I know my boy Jeff Ward would make most guys on this site eat those "short man's words" on a older stock XR250L... For the record, I am 6'2"... and its nice not to push around all that extra weight that "you types" need to with your L's. I guess it is kinda of like having a fat chick for a girlfriend!

Just get an "R" with a plate, then you have the best of both worlds. You can go roost on a starbucks lawn then go inside, take a stinky dump after your grande espresso enema and leave the door open when you leave.

I think the insecurity comes from this post:prof:

I think the short man syndrome is when you see a little guy on a full dress harly, or a 1000 instead of a 600 crotchrocket....not when you see a 6"2 240 pound guy flying through the dessert on a BRP.

Never been a "little guy" tad over 6"2" and was about 250ish when i was racing LOL

we ride Ls because we live in places where you cant or is a pita to plate Rs and some of us just ride the street. the L is a handful in the tight woods but after riding in the nevada desertI cant imagine it being tough to ride at all in that stuff except for mabye deep sand. btw to all you desert guys out there i think desert riding is awsome.
